Definitions

  • a floor surfacing or grinding machine is commonly used to strip or smooth flooring by grinding away undesired material.
  • Floor surfacing machines provide clean, smooth and essentially flat surfaces to which new coverings or coatings can be applied.
  • Floor surfacing machines are also commonly used to smooth rough flooring surfaces or to remove surface levelling compounds to create a floor which has a smooth, level is surface.
  • Certain surfaces, including some types of concrete, are also suitable for polishing using a floor surfacing machine.
  • One common type of a floor surfacing machine is the planetary-type machine. This type of machine normally comprises two to four, or even more, satellite grinding heads mounted within a larger planetary head, where the satellite grinding heads may be driven in one direction and the planetary 20 head in another direction.
  • a motor normally an electrical motor, drives both the satellite grinding heads and the planetary head, where transmission is accomplished by means of transmission belts and belt pulleys.
  • Some floor grinding machines comprise a first motor arranged to drive the planetary head, and a second motor arranged to drive the satellite grinding heads.
  • EP 1 941 823 A2 discloses a surfacing machine with one motor to drive the planetary head and a plurality of separate motors arranged to drive the satellite grinding heads.
  • a challenge when using more than one drive motor is that more than one drive 30 arrangement is required. These drive arrangements may need regular maintenance in order to remove build-up of dust, debris, and slurry generated during floor surfacing. If not properly maintained, the build-up of particles may immobilize the drive arrangement and cause equipment failure.
  • the disclosed drive arrangements comprise a first drive wheel arranged to be driven by a first motor and a second drive wheel fixedly attached to the planetary head and arranged to be driven by the first drive wheel via a connecting member.
  • the drive arrangements also comprise a protective casing arranged to enclose the first and second drive wheels, and the connecting member, thereby protecting the drive arrangement from dust, debris, and slurry.
  • the floor surfacing machine may be a floor grinding machine, or e.g. a floor cleaning machine.
  • the disclosed drive arrangements allow for reduced servicing of the floor surfacing machine, which is an advantage.
  • the life-time of the floor surfacing machine may also be prolonged.
  • the first and second drive wheels are sprockets configured to engage a drive chain constituting the connecting member.
  • a drive chain is able to withstand high torque, which is an advantage.
  • a double chain provides an even more robust connecting member.
  • the protective casing is configured to hold an amount of lubricating agent, e.g., oil, for lubricating the drive chain. This way smooth operation is provided.
  • the lubricating agent is not contaminated by outside particles due to the protective casing, which may also be configured as a sealed casing.
  • the drive chain is a self-lubricating chain.
  • a self-lubricating drive chain reduces maintenance and servicing needs of the drive arrangements, which is an advantage.
  • the first and second drive wheels are belt pulleys configured to engage a drive belt constituting the connecting member.
  • the belt pulley and overall belt configuration may be more cost efficient compared to a chain drive.
  • the connecting member comprises a gear train or gear transmission arranged to transfer power from the first motor to the second drive wheel for powering the planetary head.
  • This gear arrangement provides a robust power transfer between the first motor and planetary head.
  • the gear arrangement may be comprised in an all-metal power transfer between the first motor and planetary head.
  • the geared connection between the first drive wheel and the second drive wheel constituting the connecting member may be a direct gear connection or an indirect gear connection.
  • the protective casing comprises a sheet material enclosure arranged to be sealed against a rotating part of the floor surfacing machine by a radial seal.
  • the radial seal provides a reliable seal which prevents dust penetration, while at the same time being cost efficient and easy to assemble.
  • the protective casing comprises a sheet material enclosure arranged to be sealed against a motor mounting plate to which the first motor is attached.
  • the sheet material may be, e.g., sheet metal or plastics, which are materials that can be easily formed into a durable casing with suitable shape.

  • a seal between the protective casing and the motor mounting plate comprises a foam seal arranged circumferentially along a rim of the protective casing.
  • the foam seal guards against dust penetration via the rim of the protective casing in a robust and reliable and cost efficient manner.
  • a diameter of the second drive wheel is larger than a diameter of the first drive wheel. This way a suitable power ratio may be provided between motor and tool, which allows for use of a less powerful motor, and gives more freedom to design the overall drive system.
  • the drive arrangement is arranged to drive at least one satellite grinding head by a second drive motor.
  • the at least one satellite grinding head is fixedly attached to a respective belt pulley.
  • the belt pulley is arranged to be driven by a belt or other connecting member from a central pulley attached to a motor axle of the second drive motor.
  • the second drive wheel may be journaled about the motor axle of the second drive motor.
  • the second drive wheel is arranged radially inwards from a motor axle of the first drive motor on the planetary head.
  • wheel support assemblies for attaching drive wheels to a floor surfacing machine.
  • a wheel support assembly for a floor surfacing machine comprises an integrally formed support member configured with a weight to weigh down an attachable wheel against a ground plane.
  • the support member has a weight in the range of 15-60 kg, preferably 20-40 kg, and more preferably 23-30 kg, and even more preferably 24-27 kg.

  • the support member may, e.g., be integrally formed in cast iron or molded steel.
  • the wheel support assembly is arranged displaceable along a lateral displacement direction L with respect to a longitudinal direction P of the attachable wheel.
  • the support member is arranged to be fixed at two or more different lateral displacements. This way the wheel support assembly may accommodate planetary heads of different diameters, providing for a versatile wheel support assembly.
  • the wheel support assembly comprises an integrated drive arrangement arranged to drive the attached wheel by a drive unit via a connecting member.
  • An axle of the drive unit may be parallelly displaced from an axle of the attachable wheel. By moving the drive unit away from the wheel axle, the drive unit can be positioned further from the ground plane where it is more protected.
  • the drive unit is arranged at an angle from an axle of the attachable wheel with respect to a ground plane normal.
  • the wheel support assembly is a left wheel support assembly
  • the angle can be made different compared to the angle for a right wheel support assembly.

  • the left 171 and right 172 drive wheels of the machine 100 are attached via respective wheel support assemblies 106.
  • Each wheel support assembly comprises an integrally formed support member 180 configured with a weight to weigh down its wheel 170 against the ground, thereby providing traction to power the machine 100 in the forward direction during floor surfacing.
  • the support member 180 has a weight in the range of 15-60 kg, preferably 20-40 kg, and more preferably 23-30 kg, and even more preferably 24-27 kg. In an embodiment the weight is about 26 kg.

With reference to Figure 10, the force from the ground plane 730 is guided up through the wheel 170 and via the bearing 1010 into the support member 180. The wheel axle 175 is thus spared from supporting the full weight of the floor surfacing machine 100.
  • the wheel support assembly 106 may according to some aspects be arranged displaceable 810 along a lateral displacement direction L, as shown in Figures 8 and 9, with respect to a longitudinal direction P of the attachable wheel 170.
  • the support member 180 is arranged to be fixed 820 at two or more different lateral displacements. This is exemplified by bolt holes 820 in Figures 8 and 9, but may also be achieved using, e.g., a clamping arrangement or the like.
  • the wheel support assembly 106 comprises an integrated drive arrangement 190 arranged to drive the attached wheel 170 by a drive unit 710 via a connecting member 720.
  • an axle 715 of the drive unit 710 is parallelly displaced from an axle 175 of the attachable wheel 170. This way the drive unit 710 can be moved away from the ground plane 730 to a place where it is somewhat sheltered compared to the case where the drive unit is arranged coaxially with the wheel axle.
  • the drive unit 710 may, e.g., be an electric motor connected to the wheel via a gear transmission or belt drive.
  • the drive unit 710 may be arranged at an angle A from an axle 175 of the attachable wheel 170 with respect to a ground plane 730 normal 735.
  • the angle A can be configured different compared to the angle A for a right wheel 172 support assembly.
  • one drive wheel unit can be angled in the forward direction and one drive wheel unit can be angled in the opposite direction.
  • This type of drive unit angle configuration is exemplified in Figure 1 D. Aspects of the disclosure also relates to a system for motor overload warning.
  • the floor surfacing machine 100 then comprises one or more sensors or systems for detecting an overload condition at least at the first drive motor 110 and/or at the second drive motor 130.
  • the system may include a control unit for receiving information from said sensors, and based on said information determining whether the overload condition has been met.
  • the overload condition may include that the amount of current consumed by a motor is higher than a threshold current value.
  • a warning signal may be triggered.
  • the warning signal may appear either on a display as e.g. a pop up message or via signaling means such as warning lights in connection to the floor surfacing machine 100.
  • the warning signal may also be generated or displayed on a remote control for remotely controlling the floor surfacing machine 100.
  • the warning signal may include information regarding which of the motors for which the overload condition has been met.
  • the warning signal is indicative on which of the first- 110 and the second motors 130 that has reached an overload condition.
  • a warning signal is generated initially when overload is detected. In case the overload condition persists despite having triggered the warning signal, then an emergency stop may be triggered, or an automatic reduction in applied grinding force in order to reduce load on the first and/or second drive motor.
